Well we are finally in escrow. I thought showing the house was a pain. After all the inspections I feel totally dejected and humiliated. This is the worst experience of my life. Please tell me there is a check at the end of the tunnel.

The move is on! Tonight is our last night in the home. We go to sign papers tomorrow. Got our NV Drivers Licenses a few weeks ago-that's 3 hrs of my life I will never get back. Getting a DL is now like getting a Passport or official document-I had to bring birth certificates, SSN cards, Marriage certificates, proof of residency etc. one cool thing-no more smog checks EVER.
Also I'm getting new vintage license plates for my coupe-they offer the 70's Blue plates. Trying to come up with a good combination. The DMV website has a search so you can check and see if it is available.

Well been here for almost 4 mos. So far love it. Nightime temps typically 15-20 deg but warms nicely during the day. You don't want a north facing driveway as it will be frozen all winter. Our property is south facing frontage so good there. Have not started designing the new house yet-still trying to recover from getting out of our last home.
Taxes are better than ca-no state income tax. Gas is 40c less expensive. Most everyone in our neighborhood is from So Cal or the Bay Area. It's very open and uncrowded here-most people that move to Nevada are moving to Reno/Sparks.

Our property is taxed at about 25% of what we paid for it. Since we are building our prop taxes will be lower than if we bought a house.

It varies widely depending on where you are-the topography varies a lot. It's about 4800' here. Typical winter lows in teens/20's, highs in 50's. It's been a very mild winter so far but cold. All in all nice.

Well the Nevada experience is not working out as expected-it is going to take longer and cost more to build our home due to the economic expansion in Reno/Sparks about 1hr away. The builders are going to the money building tract homes there. Our original dream was to move to the Oregon Coast town of Bandon-we are re-opening the dream. We are still pretty much packed up and living in a rental. Real Estate is tight in Bandon so we will need to wait for the right home. Just got back from a quicky trip to look at a few homes that turned out to be major fixer uppers. The town burned down in 1936 so a lot of the homes are late 30's-50's. Ocean view is 50-75% premium. It's a long way from here (9 hrs) so move will be difficult.

Bought a home in Bandon Oregon-still living in NV while we wait for former owners to move out. The move starts in a few weeks. We can finally settle down. The lot is big enough for me to build a shop-hope to get started ASAP.

Here we go again-loaded up for the first trip to Oregon. We were still mostly packed from the last move.

Well we are still moving. Made another trip with a 26' truck and now I'm loading what I hope will be the last trip. It has to be because the new tenants move in next week. Uhaul which is usually pretty good has been jacking me around a lot. The last trip they sent me to N Reno to get the truck and my loaders were waiting. This trip I got the truck OK but the auto transport I need to take my car with me is in Reno so I have to drive the loaded Uhaul there to get the trailer then back here. while I was waiting in line someone was having a hissy fit because they messed up their reservation.

Moving 'fun' (or not)
Typical U-Haul, no point in having a hissy fit, they're just all over the map with Customer service .
As long as you get the job done and settled you'll be fine .
